Carlos Ghosn: Former Nissan boss hit with fresh charge


Former Nissan boss Carlos Ghosn has been indicted by prosecutors in Japan on a fresh charge of aggravated breach of trust.
It is the fourth charge brought against Mr Ghosn and relates to the alleged misuse of company funds.
The 65-year-old is in detention in Tokyo and his lawyers have applied for bail.
Mr Ghosn, who denies any wrongdoing, has said the allegations are a result of a plot against him.
He was first arrested in November and spent 108 days in custody. While out on bail pending a trial, the former auto boss was re-arrested in Tokyo on 4 April.
Prosecutors allege that Mr Ghosn made a multi-million-dollar payment to a Nissan distributor in Oman, and that as much as $5m (£3.8m) was funnelled to an account controlled by Mr Ghosn.
